Mysteries are due to secrecy.

Mysteries are due to secrecy.

Summary

This quote suggests that mysteries exist because there is a lack of information or knowledge due to deliberate concealment. Secrets contribute to the creation of unknowns and unanswered questions, which in turn spark curiosity and intrigue. Without secrecy, there would be no mysteries to unravel, as transparency and open communication would allow for a better understanding of the world around us. Thus, this quote emphasizes the connection between secrecy and the enigmatic nature of various phenomena.
